From Scratch

Recently, I found an old grocery list that surprised me for a couple of reasons. One, the list was devoid of peanut butter, toilet paper and paper towel. I can’t remember the last time I went to the grocery store and did not purchase one of those three items.

Second, and more importantly, on the back I had scratched a few goals for myself. These were long-term goals that I expected to take years to accomplish, so I find it strange that I would simply scratch them out on the back of a random list like this one. But, there they were:
Learn to cook like a gourmet chef
Learn to knit a sweater or something
Get something published

Let’s just say I’m still working on the first two. But that third one? That third one, I crossed right off the list. I accomplished that (somewhat vague, but still worthy) goal about two years ago. I think it’s about time to scratch out a new list, yes? Hmmkay.
